Here's what you need: paprika, garlic powder, ground black pepper, salt, dried oregano, skinless boneless chicken breasts, olive oil, russet potatoes, unsalted butter, lemon, fresh asparagus, grated parmesan cheese, fresh parsley

Provided by Luna Regina

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 13

2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dried oregano
4 skinless boneless chicken breasts, medium sized
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 russet potatoes, medium sized, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch (1.24 cm) chunks
2 ½ tablespoons unsalted butter, melted, divided
4 slices lemon
16 oz fresh asparagus
1.5 oz grated parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped, optional

Steps:

  • Prep:
  • In a bowl, combine paprika, garlic powder, ground black pepper, salt, and dried oregano. Mix to make a spice blend, divide it into 3 equal parts and put in 3 small bowls. Set aside.
  • Put a piece of chicken breast on a cutting board and cut three-quarters of the way into the chicken breast to create a pocket on the side. Repeat with the remaining pieces and put them on a lined baking pan. Arrange potatoes around the chicken.
  • Season the chicken with one-third of the spice blend and olive oil. Rub the chicken to distribute the seasoning evenly. Then, season the potatoes with another part of the spice blend and 1 ½ tablespoons of melted unsalted butter. Toss to coat evenly. Let them sit and marinate for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, put asparagus in a large plate. Drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of melted unsalted butter and sprinkle the rest of the spice blend on the asparagus. Mix to coat the seasoning evenly.
  • Cook:
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Put the baking pan in the oven and bake for 20 minutes. Once the timer rings, take the pan out of the oven. Move the potatoes to one side of the pan and arrange the asparagus on the other side. Put lemon slices on the chicken. Put the pan back in the oven and bake for 10 minutes.
  • After 10 minutes, take the pan out. Move the lemon slices to the asparagus. Sprinkle grated parmesan cheese over the chicken and potatoes. Return the baking pan to the oven and bake for another 5 minutes.
  • Once the time is up, remove the chicken from the oven. Garnish with freshly chopped parsley. Transfer to a plate and serve.

Time 1h25m

Number Of Ingredients 8

4 boneless, skinless chicken breasts
1 c olive oil
4 Tbsp fresh lemon juice
1/2 tsp onion powder
1 tsp garlic powder
1 Tbsp Italian seasoning
1 Tbsp fine sea salt
1/4 tsp pepper

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Pound out 4 chicken breasts until 1/2-inch thick. Put the breasts inside a resealable bag when tenderizing to avoid splatter.
  • 2. Mix olive oil, fresh lemon juice, onion powder, garlic powder, Italian seasoning, sea salt, and pepper in a bowl.
  • 3. Pour marinade over the chicken breasts.
  • 4. Cover and let sit for 15 minutes.
  • 5. After 15 minutes, take the chicken out of the marinade and place on paper towels to drain.
  • 6. Use cooking spray to lightly grease a 9 x 13 pan.
  • 7. Place chicken breasts in the pan. Insert a digital meat thermometer in the middle of the thickest part of the biggest breast.
  • 8. Bake for 15 to 20 minutes. When the thermometer reads 165 degrees the chicken is done.
  • 9. Let the chicken breasts rest for 5 minutes. Then serve. Sprinkle with chopped fresh parsley to add color when serving.
